A community website with a forum(phpbb3), not more than 2000 users, less than 50 posts per day and less than 50 users online at the same time, will be ok to host under a shared account?
If the bandwith is lower than the limit, is it possible to use many resources and get susbended?
I've had four different hosts in 1½ year, and I'm noe experiencing problems again with my current host, Lunarpages. Therefore, I really want to make the right choice this time. It would be such a pleasure to see my website run without any problems for more than just 8-9 months at a time...
Anyway, let me try to describe it. It's based on the Content Management System phpFusion. It has news, downloads, forums and screenshots. The site itself is c. 2 GB large (because of forum attachments and screenshots), the download section is c. 15 GB, and the site use up about 700 GB og bandwidth each month. In the forum, there's 100.000 posts, growing day for day, of course. We have 12.000 registered members, but we only have c. 50 members online at the same time -- maximum. Throughout a week, 2.000 members log in, but as said, they are never online at the same time. The members are mostly from Europe, but we do also have members from USA and Australia.
I've had both Lunarpages and Servage as hosts, but I have experienced problems with both of them. Servage has a daily bandwidth limit which I had overlooked, and the website constantly exceeded this. Lunarpages is very, very slow when using a MySQL DB.
We have built a social comunity website like myspace, hi5, facebook etc. Can you please suggest what kind of hosting plan should we host on. We have developed the site using Windows Technoligies.

But now that I pointed the domain I can no longer access the old server from the web.
So this is my shared ip:
66.235.201.136
Now there are about 10 domains on the IP.
what would my URL look like to access one of those accounts in plesk in the browser?
66.235.201.136/~rgratitu
I've tried the above and it doesn't work.
I currently use a HostGator shared plan which caps off database connections at 25. HG support said my only choice is to move to a dedicated server which means my monthly hosting cost jumps from $14.95 to $174.00! Something I'm not too excited about paying.
Can anyone offer any suggestions on Virtual Private Servers running *nix? Would a VPS be a good alternative to an expensive HG dedicated server or do you recommend I just suck it up and go dedicated? I just can't believe how much they want considering I've seen some VPS for under $100. If I did go with a VPS, would there be an easy way to move all my files, databases, SSL certs, etc to the new server?
...and has been for several hours now.
Somehow, I am not filled with confidence.
i need mssql2005 account with 1 database only with access from my management studio express to your mssql server ip only. no webhosting needed. database size <=200 Mb. Aproximately bandwidth <=10Gb/mo.
MSSQL2005 server must be hosted on ThePlanet.
Or at least suggest me any company using ThaPlanet Hosting who selling shared mssql2005 hosting.
I have a dedicated server with SSH ability and I need to backup some of the accounts of the server via rsync to a normal shared account where I only have ftp access..?

This is my first time with shared hosting and I went with hostgator because they are well known. Well, my site is getting decent traffic but well within my disk space and data transfer allotment, and I get this email saying my site has been suspended and my site is inaccessible.
Dear customer,
Due to an excessive amount of Apache requests on our gatorXXX server we have been forced to suspend the directory /home/username/public_html/sitename at this time as all other users on the server are experiencing issues due to this :
...http requests list...
Please let us know when you're ready to investigate and address this issue so we can work with you further. Thanks.

Is this what most shared hosts do? Just suspend your account once your site starts getting traffic?
whenever I open a new account in Cpanel it assigns a new IP to the new host. I want to know how I can change the cpanel settings to assigns a shared IP to the new host.
View 7 Replies View RelatedOur web site has been hacked many time over the last few months. The hacker only puts links to other site in our html code. We changed the FTP password many time but we are still finding malicious code in our main index page and other pages on the site.
We can figure how and from where they are coming in and how prevent further hacks.
I ideally want to use Fasthosts as the hosting provider, on a shared hosting account. Are there any CMS's that install and work well in such an environment?
I dont need a CMS with bells and whistles, just one that is template driven, and has 'friendly' URLs.
Is it safe to run your website and WHMCS on the same account or site?
Say for example I was running Joomla and WHMCS on the same account. If ever a vulnerability in Joomla was found which allowed hackers to view, edit, or download files on the account, this could mean whmcs getting hacked into. End result would be all account information being stolen or worse all the account being deleted or hacked.

I run a small forum of (100-200) users that belong to a photographic community.
I now have it running off my personal hosting account that I have with dreamhost.
I pay around USD 90-100.
Its an ok account, as I have unlimited domains, databases, even disk space I undesrstand.
The idea is to move it on a hosting account of its own.
I just want an advice for a company and a price, around the same margins, that I can move it too.
As I said above, there are around 100-150 users, with prospects of it going up but not very much. They also upload images on a daily basis, so disk space and reliability in that area (i know backups are usually my responsability but anyway) are important.
I am starting a social networking website that will give people the ability to have their own pages and upload videos to the site. The site is geared towards a specific niche, but has the potential to be very large and receive a lot of videos and traffic.
We are looking at different web developers and one is saying that we should go with a dedicated server with 500GB of disk space and 1500 GB of bandwidth.
The other developer is suggesting we go with a company that hosts media content and you only pay a low monthly charge and then the additional charges are based on number of video views per month. That way we don't have to worry about additional servers and this grows with us.
I am very confused, because it can get quite costly the more views we get, but they keep telling me it is cheaper than going with dedicated servers.
I'm trying to figure out how much can be held on a dedicated server with the above specifications and how much traffic/video views can it handle at one time.
I've got my new hosting provider choice narrowed down to two providers (ServIt & WiredTree) for a Managed VPS. From the reviews here they both seem to be very similiar in customer support and reliability. The only difference I have found is that ServIt does have a community forum and WiredTree does not have a forum. It's wierd to be choosing a hosting provider based on this, so I thought I would come get your opinions on this.
View 14 Replies View RelatedHas anyone had issues with Level3 honoring their discard community recently (3556:9999)? We had to null 2 IPs earlier in the week. The first one they didn't pick up the route when advertised via BGP (or if they did, it took hours). We ended up having to call and get them to filter it manually. The second IP we were able to null route fine using BGP. Now we have another IP being attacked and it looks like Level3 isn't going to pick up the route and discard traffic.
